Gangs of London Seasons 1 & 2 Boxset [DVD]

Product Information

In the year since the end of season one, Elliot has become a killer for hire for the Investors, hopping from country to country carrying out hits. What Elliot wants more than anything is to save his dad, but the investors are keeping him in a secret location as collateral to keep Elliot under the thumb. But when the revelation surfaces that Sean is in fact NOT DEAD Elliot has a chance to get his dad out of the country. Koba (Waleed Zuaiter) is a brutal ruler who wants complete control of London's drug trade. (Image credit: Christopher Raphael / Sky / AMC)

For lovers of action there was plenty to enjoy with very well done fight scenes and shoot outs galore.Let me begin by saying I am immensely difficult to please these days, and as I’ve grown older, rather than becoming more tolerant and patient, I have become less so. I think this is because with the passing years you recognise that time is finite. Furthermore, there are so many more alternative forms of entertainment than there were when I was a child in the 60’s & early 70’s when I would indiscriminately watch anything.

Whatever happens in season three, expect the focus on the diversity of the titular setting to continue. Billy’s got one arm, Sean is in prison, having been left hanging, perched on a car tire by Elliot. It’s not clear what he’s in for – his crimes are many, but what he’ll have admitted to is another matter. He certainly poisoned Koba whose body is there at the scene. So for now, Sean’s out of the running, but he’s such a huge part of the show we can’t imagine him not having a big part to play in season 3. Will he wheedle his way out? Will he form a new faction in prison? Or will he find that he suddenly has to grow humility from behind bars where he’s no longer the big man?Doubt it… The Allegiances Those who didn't make it through the street wars were Arta Dobroshi's Floriana (her last-minute double crossing of the Wallaces earned her a bullet in the head) and Koba (Waleed Zuaiter), Afridi's enforcer. Koba stepped on too many wrong shoes and met his fate via a poisoned chip shop patty.As instructed, Sean arrives at the location, a seemingly abandoned junkyard. He drags Koba's lifeless body out, offered as proof that the deed is done.
